Walter Whitman Where Are You

Walter Whitman where are you

Among the stars or, in the earth beneath my shoe

It's just 'cause I'm wondering

Could you walk with me awhile

And maybe heaven could spare you awhile

Walter Whitman I confess

My faith is shaken

And my life's a holy mess

Yes, I need deliverance

But I'd settle for a smile

Now maybe heaven can spare you awhile

I thought I heard you yawpin' from the yonder tree

I swore I heard you say

"Don't worry boy, shut up, enjoy, be free"

Walter Whitman I declare

I could sing songs of joy

Through my darkness and despair

It's just I'm hoping

You could shed some light

That is if heaven can spare you tonight

"Don't worry boy, shut up, enjoy, be free"

Walter Whitman I declare

I could sing songs of joy

Through my darkness and despair

It's just I'm hoping

You could coax a problem child

Now maybe heaven could spare you a while

Walter Whitman where are you?
